New Book
Simone Forti
Published by Nero Editions, Rome, 2024, 76 pp. (b/w ill.), 16 × 23 cm, English
Price: €16

New Book is the title of a new poem composed of three existing poems re-edited by Simone Forti. As reading this poem, one moves forward with wonder amid everyday memories, recollections of life, a sense of civic duty, glimpses of a precarious world, the beauty of nature, melancholy, a rage to live.

American dancer and choreographer Simone Forti has been a leading figure in the development of contemporary performance over more than fifty years. Investigating the relationship between object and body, through animal studies, news animations and land portraits, she reconfigured the concept of performance and dance.

Ensembles 1968 - 1992
Anna Oppermann
Published by Hate Cantz, Berlin, 2007, 268 pp. (colour & b/w ill.), 20.7 × 26.8 cm, German / English
Price: €75

Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Anna Oppermann: Ensembles at Württembergischer Kunstverein, Stuttgart, 17 April 17 – 12 August, 2007 and the Generali Foundation, Vienna, 28 August – 16 December, 2007.

In the late sixties German artist Anna Oppermann (1940–1993) began creating installations, which she called Ensembles, containing references to Pop Art, Arte Povera, and Conceptual Art. Assembled using found objects, photographs, sketches, personal texts, quotations, and coloured photographic screens, these installations were often misinterpreted by contemporaries as purely biographical statements.
